Tambling Dice

If we don't dominate possession and bag a few goals something is seriously wrong. Disappointed not to see RLC and CHO start...….

Arizzabalaga ! Arizzabalaga ! Bakes bread in his Aga Gets occasional cramp He's such a cheeky scamp Not listening to Sarri Last seen on safari Arizzabalaga ! Arizzabalaga !

Yeah...fine him a few grand, demote him the bench for a few games ...that'll teach 'em. I'd go further and make him park in the visitors car park, wash his own kit and buy his own laces. Not for too long of course....have to remember he's a superstar after all.

Thought we grew into the game and they all look fired up which was good to see. Notwithstanding, Kepa's performance prior to shootout was a disgrace and indefensible. Another reason I'm rapidly losing interest in the sport. Imagine a batsman refusing to walk or Eddie Jones's directives being ignored...bad example to all. He's a brat that I don't want to see wear the shirt again... Hopefully Sarri gets some proper backing now.

Exactly....mind you they did have Sammy Lee on the coaching staff....deep pockets required now.

I propose a managerial job share. Just retain Conte as defensive co-ordinator and Sarri to take care of attacking duties. Use the £9m saved in not paying out Conte's contract to pay Sarri's release clause. Not sure who gets the big desk but perhaps one of them can arrange to WFH.... Now let's move on..........

Nah....

FFS .... Pedro starts....(happy to be called out after he has a stormer)

Of course winning is important, but would be equally pleased to see us change our strategy. Probably employing Luiz as a 'rush-goalie' is a step too far, but a change in formation and a few fresh faces would be equally encouraging.

That's it Chelsea. Hoof it to Eden and hope he beats 6 men and then slots it home. That's the way to do it.

Scanning the various transfer threads today has made for some of the most depressing reading I can recall. Echo most of the sentiments from you sensible chaps and totally do not understand why we're not in pole position for a much needed world class attacker.

So now there are reports that various factions are complaining about Conte's training regime and methods being too hard and contributing to our injury backlog. Seems to go against the message from the playing staff that we need to 'work, work, work' to sort out our problems. Notwithstanding I fear the cycle of disruption is beginning to repeat itself irrespective of whether there is any truth to the rumours. Once you begin to openly criticise and report the way someone is doing their job then its downhill from there. Perhaps Carlo is the right man for the job. Rumours there were that the Bayern players organised their own training sessions as they felt they weren't being worked hard enough.

Not helping his cause is Diego Whilst sunning himself in Tobago Dining daily on Goat Six Eggs and a Stoat He's now stuck inside his Gold Winnabago

Doubtless I'm being naive but having him available and prepared to do a job, even until Jan would give us so many more options. He's still got a WC squad place to play for surely. Firmly believe the situation is redeemable even for a short term....he may be a complete twat with Feijoadas for brains but for the moment he's still our twat.

So call me suspicious if you must but TomCFC85 has recently been spotted in his local store purchasing Torradas (a savoury bread type thing that's popular in Brazil) instead of his usual sliced white. This coupled with the fact that he appears to know a little too much about the current status of the Sandro fiasco leads me to suspect that our future LWB is in fact currently being held prisoner in Tom's cellar. So Tom if you could please give him a pen and get him to issue that Transfer request and put us all out of our misery....I would be much obliged.
